6. Once you are done with entering all necessary parameters, parameter summary will be displayed. Here if you want you can make some changes.

7. Here i strongly recommend increasing number of database abap import jobs. By default it’s 3. For this demo, i chose 10 import jobs to be executed in parallel.

Longest phase will definitely be ‘Import ABAP‘ phase. Depending on your machine, this phase can take from hours to couple of days. Make sure turn off Windows Automatic Updates.
